Best value British GP tickets?

[bmthnick1981]

Anyone got any? If so which ones have you gone for?

The 3 day general admission passes look quite good value - they are about £200 each on www.easygpt.co.uk but can be had for less on ebay - always a bit dubious about ebay tickets!

I'm after 2 tickets, really just for race day, but it seems more economical to by 3 day passes.

If anyone has any tickets they have for sale could they post details here? I trust the PH collective more than ebay!

Thanks

If you just want raceday why not just get a Grandstand seat?

£180 to £250, depending on where you sit, buy direct from Silverstone website so no eBay required.

Depends what you want. Race day is worst value for money as you only get to see a GP2 race, Porsche race, F1 race and the historic. So only 4 races. Loads of action on Friday and Saturday.

With general admission you have to be in early to get a good spot. With a grandstand you can stoll in at 9am

I haven't seen a timetable but I'm told that there is no historic race for this year.

IMV Friday and Saturday are better days to go, it's all a bit quieter so with a GA you can wander around and see things from different locations, there is often more track time.

I paid £290 for my 3 day grandsatnd tickets, through Silverstone. I'll be in Luffield B this year.

Well worth the extra if you ask me - you can roam around most of the grandstands Friday and Saturday so you can watch the racing from most vantage points around the track.

I'm all in favour of weekend tickets, too. As mentioned, it's much better VFM and you don't have to worry about raceday traffic.

I have now seen the time table! P = Practice, Q = Qualifying, R = Race

Friday you have Formula BMW P 25mins, F1 P 90 mins, GP2 P 30mins, Formula BMW Q, F1 P 90mins, GP2 Q, GP3 P 30mins, Porsche Supercup P 30mins

Saturday - Formula BMW R, GP3 Q, F1 P 60mins, Porsche Supercup Q, GP2 R, GP3 R

So no F1 Qualifying then?
